DO NOT include the part about accepting the appology at all. It was a face saving lie to cover her true feelings. All you will do is shift the burden hatting the manager. The best bet is to focus our anger on the stations and on lipton. Remember lipton is a french company and they have enough trouble.

If Lipton wants to have american support, then drop the chix.

and implied that the "public" did not object to the Dixie Chicks' remarks as much as Free Republic made it seem

We are the public.

The Dixie Bitch needs to apologize ON STAGE as soon as she takes the stage here in the USA. She spewed her venom on stage, she can apologize ON STAGE.

To the stage people: Leave the pulpit to the preachers, the soapbox to the politicans and stay on the stage. The only area that you are qualified.

For the washed up so-called celebs get your face time doing good not damning our country.

Her "apology" was not a retraction of what she said. She was only sorry to "disrespect" Bush.

If you want to see her true feelings of what she thinks about her situation, go see her home page:

You need to pressure Lipton tea also, who sponsors these anti-American backstabbers.

Either you like their music or you don't. I don't care for their politics but that is irrelevent to me and will not influence my decision to purchase or listen to their music.

This Dixie Chicks stuff is getting a little ridiculous.

Yes, what Natalie Maines said was goofy. But by reacting so forcefully against a sentence she uttered, you're treating her as if her words have some sort of sacred power. You're empowering the idea that what entertainers say is important -- when for weeks everybody around here has been pointing out, rightfully, that we shouldn't take celebrity opinion seriously.

Sure, don't buy her music anymore. Throw away your Dixie Chicks CDs and concert tickets. Whatever. But it's silly to sit here a week later making such a stink about something she said at a frickin concert. And why even give a second thought to what some band manager says about Free Republic? Who cares?! Are people around here that insecure about the reputation of Free Republic? If somebody says something untrue and outlandish, the best reaction is to show confidence and self-assuredness -- by ignoring it.

This whole episode has a sad resemblance to the kind of hair-trigger hypersensitivity we're used to seeing from the left, where every half-controversial sentence is parsed with the microscope of political correctness, and everyone puffs up their self-righteousness as they take "offense" at the words of others.

Think about it: Are any of you truly "offended," in the real sense of that word? Did her words actually cause you emotional pain? Are you really hurt?

Here's the part where someone will respond by saying, "If you don't like what we're doing, don't bother posting here," or, "If you don't like what we're doing, why are you reading this thread," blah blah blah.
